History
The fundamental training hall of mountain asceticism dwells deep within Tenkawa's sacred peaks. I have beheld the spiritual metamorphosis of countless practitioners—a transformation beyond words in its beauty. All who visit this sanctuary seek something within their deepest hearts. The power that receives and guides their seeking dwells eternally here.
